Hello!
It has been pointed out to me–repeatedly, albeit mostly by the same person–that I have not blogged for an extended period of time. The truth is, although many ‘bloggable’ subjects have crossed my mind in the past (Man, has it really been months? You know what they say about time and fun.) while, I’ve been reticent to sit down and actually type stuff out.
The last time I travelled, which was to Seattle (Finally making use of Reading Week!), I wrote in a notebook instead. Hopefully I will get a chance to transcribe that all, and maybe even share some pictures. Also, thus far, life had been relatively calm over the summer as I continued with research and school, with some occasional time-outs to spend time with friends and family.
I think this is a pretty exciting term though. I finally finished my Honours Thesis (and that’s pretty exciting, right? : p). I transitioned relatively smoothly from my summer volunteer research work to a research co-op position(final run!), so I’m still in Waterloo until April, when I will graduate, at last. There are upcoming trips to Ottawa and NYC, (and with 3 whole weeks of Christmas vacation, maybe Vancouver or elsewhere, we’ll see) and I’ll have to apply for grad schools. I’ve also managed to drag myself back to the gym on an every-other-day basis and am also attempting to go low-carb, which as calorie counting will teach you, is quite difficult.
So it looks like I’ve got quite a few posts in store. : )
